one of those days

Had a great day on tuesday. Headed out from Mindarie at 6am to Direction Bank. Conditions were as good as I have seen in Perth. First drop was a double header of Dhuie and black arse. The misus was on straight away as well with a good size Baldie. Set the tone for the next 3 hours. Pretty much every drop was a Dhuie around 70cm or a nice Baldie. Poor old release weight was working overtime. Ended up catching and releasing 10 dhuies 5 Baldies, black arse, fox fish as well as 4 unstopables which were never sighted. Headed home by 11 both happy campers.Was mint to see the wife having a ball and to see her technique improving to the point were she now needs no help from me at all. In fact I think I got my ass handed to me overall. All in all a great day with all number of fish released well . Kept our quota of 2 dhuies and 2 baldies. One to remember

first mistake you made was to teach your wife how to fish.:)  now she wil out fish you every time, always happened to me.

on a plus, now she has the bug you will get to fish more often.

well done on the great trip out, would have made for a very exciting day for sure.

Those are the days that keep you hooked on fishing. They dont happen very often. Not to me anyway.
